Hey guys I have a 1955 grumman step van(kinda lol) it was had a new gmc Forward Control Chassis put under it in 1965. So the engine is a 1965 230 I believe. I am wondering what is between my carb and intake manifold? Have attached a few pictures any help would be appreciated my assumption is maybe come sort of heater but pure guess lol

I apologize if this is a dumb question but for you carb experts what is the piece I have circled? and why do some of the 1bbl rochesters have it and some don't?

The good old saying "to each and his own" But I think it looks amazing the way it is. And that the chrome fender trim would only take away from it's wicked lines! If it was my car I would go with some nice wire wheels instead but that's me. Beautiful car you have there!!!

Hi Guys, Looking for feedback from anyone who has experience with the RideTech air ride for the Buicks. My 63 Lesabre needs rear springs and shocks all the way around. So it's time to decide if I go air ride or stick with normal suspension. I am leaning towards Air ride so far. I would probably put together my own air supply system. Only because I have a lot of knowledge pneumatic systems and have access to components and will cost me far less. I like that there is little modification required to fit these bags. I will link the ones I am looking at. any info will be appreciated. https://www.ridetech.com/product/air-suspension-system-for-61-64-buick/ Thank you Terry H

Hey guys that is a bench build cost not including removal/install. His price is $2000.00 to rip it down inspect it and that includes the reseal. any parts cost added on top of that. Now I am in Ontario so that is Canadian $2000.00 +$1500USD ish. I think I am going to go with this shop just because He truly knows his stuff. They pretty well only work on stuff 70's and older and I talked to a few of the top resto shops and they all recommend him. When I talked to them they explained there process and even welcomed me to come have a look as they tare it down and they would show me exactly what it was going to need parts wise. And if my schedule would allow it I would take up that offer mainly just to check out the wonder that is the Dynaflow torque converter! Yes it is alot of money but after talking to the guy and seeing some if his work via his website and Facebook page I am very confident they will do great work. I will leave his website just incase anyone wants to look at it. As always thank you everyone for your advise and info. https://www.lawrencetransmission.ca/ https://www.facebook.com/Lawrence-Transmission-Services-Ltd-129140677147850

Hey guys I have my 1963 Lesabre it started leaking tranny fluid out the bellhousing. It was fine I hadn't driven it in a few weeks then all of a sudden it was leaking quite bad out the bellhousing. I got a quote for a rebuild around me in Ontario and they want $3000.00 to rebuild it and like $2000.00 to install external seal kit. To me both prices sound hi! any advise would be great. Tranny has 90xxx miles on it. Thank you Terry

@telriv any idea where to get a plastic air cleaner stud?

@Bill Stoneberg No I am going to tackle fuel first once thats all worked out will get the distributor. I only want to chase my tail on one system at a time lol

Based off all the arguments here I took none of your advice and bought a Sniper EFI system to go on it lol! I had the opportunity to pick up a kit at a steal of a deal so what the heck I thought lets open a whole new can of warms!

Ed you have been a great help thank you!!! Im love learning all I can

Hey Guys here is my question. Can I index the pinion and pinion nut count the exposed threads. Remove the nut replace the seal and put the nut back in the same place and be ok for preload? It's on a 63 lesabre diff.
